HARTMANN Sterile Hydrocolloid Dressings – 7.5 x 7.5 cm (Pack of 10)

Hydrocolloid dressings are essential tools for managing difficult-to-heal wounds. Manufactured by the trusted brand Hartmann, the Hydrocoll dressings are specially designed to provide optimal healing conditions for chronic wounds, burns, and other forms of skin injury.

The Hydrocoll dressings feature a dual-layer structure that includes an inner layer composed of sodium carboxymethylcellulose hydrocolloids. This layer is embedded in a network of inert adhesive polymers, allowing for excellent moisture retention while also being auto-adhesive. The outer layer consists of semi-permeable polyurethane, providing additional protection and breathability for the wound.

Each pack contains 10 sterile dressings sized at 7.5 x 7.5 cm, making them versatile for various wound types. Hydrocolloid dressings are clinically recognized for their effectiveness in promoting healing while minimizing pain during dressing changes and preventing wound contamination.
